1. SCOPE
This specification covers 6.35/11 copper conductor, cross-linked polyethylene(XLPE)
insulated, copper wire screened, anti-termite treated MDPE oversheathed power cables mainly
in accordance with IEC Publication 60502-2.
This insulation is recommended for operation at maximum rated conductor temperature 90.

2. CONSTRUCTION AND MATERIAL

2.1 Conductor
Conductor shall be of stranded and circular compacted conductor of plain annealed copper wires
in accordance with IEC 60228.

2.2 Conductor screen
An extruded semi-conducting layer shall be applied concentrically over the conductor.
A semi-conducting tape may be applied over the conductor.

2.3 Insulation
The insulation shall be of cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE).
The minimum thickness at any point shall not fall below 90% of the specified value
by more than 0.1 . ( 1 . 0 9 . 0

.
The conductor screen, the insulation and the insulation screen shall be applied simultaneously.

2.4 Insulation screen
A non-metallic extruded semi-conducting layer shall be applied concentrically over the insulation.

2.5 Metallic insulation screen
The metallic insulation screen shall comprise plain annealed copper wires.
All wires shall be of the same nominal diameter. Wires shall not vary from the nominal diameter
given in attached table by more than 5%.
The wires shall be helically applied with a length of lay not exceeding 10 times the diameter of the
core and the copper screen wires for each core shall be in intimate contact with the screen wires
form adjacent cores.

2.6 Core identification (for 3cores)
The individual cores shall be identified by the narrow colored strip tapes applied over the
insulation screen
- Red, Yellow, Blue

2.7 Laying-up (for 3cores)
The required number of cores shall be cabled with non-hygroscopic fillers in round shape and a
suitable tape shall be applied over the cabled core.

2.8 Oversheath
The oversheath shall be an extruded layer of black anti-termite treated MDPE compound.
The minimum thickness at any point shall be not less than 80 of the specified nominal value
in attached table by more than 0.2 .

3. MARKING
The following items shall be marked on the MDPE oversheath throughout the entire length of
the cable.
1) Type of cable
2) Number of core and size of conductor
3) Manufacturer's name
4) Year of manufacture
5) Length marking

4. TEST
The following test shall be conducted at manufacturers works.
Testing method shall be in accordance with IEC 60502-2.

4.1 Routine Tests
1) Conductor resistance test
2) A.C withstand voltage test

4.2 Sample Tests
1) Conductor examination and check of dimensions
2) Hot-set for XLPE insulation

The following description shall be marked on a flange of the reel.
1) Direction of rotation of the reel
2) Type of cable
3) Number of conductors and conductor size
4) Length of cable
5) Net & Gross weight
6) Manufacturer's name
7) Year of manufacture
8) Reel No. (if required)
